A dreadlocked man whose identity has not yet been established is now a patient at the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPHC), nursing two gunshot injuries he sustained to one of his feet after reportedly snatching a wallet from another man in the vicinity of Robb Street and Avenue of the Republic, Georgetown.
Based on information received, police are seeking this man’s accomplice.
At the scene of the incident, an eyewitness detailed to this publication that the victim had parked his car in the vicinity of Church’s Chicken and had gone about conducting his business. Upon returning to his motor car, which he was about to enter, the dreadlocked man reportedly grabbed his wallet, and the man whipped out a firearm and discharged two rounds, hitting the suspect to his knee.
Police arrived at the scene and took the injured man to the hospital, where he has been admitted a patient. They were, however, seen circling the area, looking for the dreadlock’s accomplice.
